A

s the third annual
Hall of Fame Games
commence this Sun-
day, the co-sponsoring
Michigan Jewish Sports Hall
of Fame will continue its ef-
forts to perpetuate the event.
The Games, for the Jewish
developmentally disabled in
metropolitan Detroit, are
financed by the Hall, at
$10,000 per year, according to
Bill Jacobs.
Last May, a $50,000 con-
tribution from the Maas
Foundation in Detroit
established the Hall of Fame
Games Endowment Fund to
ensure the event's continua-
tion, Jacobs said. The fund
now stands at $85,000, with
a goal of $150,000.

Jacobs said the goal was set
-with cost increases an-
ticipated. He and Hiram Dorf-
man, administrator of the
Maas Foundation, are co-
administrators of the Games
Fund.
The Games and the
resulting Fund are an off-
shoot of the dream of the late
Al Foon, a founder of the Hall
whose goals included the
fostering of Jewish identity
through athletics.
About 80 athletes — from
children to seniors — will
compete in Sunday's Games
beginning at 11 a.m. on the
Maple/Drake Jewish Com-
munity Center campus. The
Games, open to the public,
conclude at 4 p.m. A closing
ceremony and dinner-dance
for the athletes begin in Shiff-
man Hall at 7:30 p.m. 0
